Counsel Together.
CINCINNATI, OHIO, Feb. 2I.-The nz-
tional committee of the Greenbsck party
met this morning st the Burnet house
with +. Il. Gallette of Iowa, in the chair
and a fair attendance of members and
others. Mr.. Schilling of Wisconsin,
opened the discussion with the PROPOSE
tion to declare the Greenback party dis
solved at once so as to unite untrammeled
IN the formation Of tn new party which
is to be organized at the convention which
meets tomorrow. This proposition was
very generally opposed by all who spoke.
Not so much because of objection to its
spirit but to the form. 1t was urged that
this convention at this meeting has not
the power to dissolve the party. 1t was
also urged that If it had the power il
would not be good policy to exercise it
until after the coming convention has
submitted its principles. These views
prevailed and committee was appointed
to report to this committee on the nstter
after the adjournment Of the convention
Henry George arrived to-day and was es-
corted to his hotel by delegation from
the Henry George club. He speaks to-
night at Music Hall, but is in no way con-
nected with the convention which meets
tomorrow, nor are there any representa-
tives yet present from New York George
clubs to take part in the convention.
Among prominent delegates now here
are Hon. Mr.. Smith, Milwaukee; Con-
gressman-eleot J. B. Clarke, Massachu-
sets; Captain Allen, Senatorial candidate !
in Indiana; Colonel Thompson and B. ASI
Gates of West Virgins, Samuel Crocker

margin must always be left for enthus

of the first order. But when he says
'be kind to sinners, but don't make
